Chris Brown Interview

Sixteen year-old Chris Brown has the looks of Tevin Campbell, the dance moves of Usher and a voice all his own. His first single, Run It, is running up the music charts, and his self-titled debut album will be released in a matter of months. Check out my interview with this cutie from Virginia and find out about his upcoming disc, what he looks for in a GF and his encounter with Usher!

Sindy: Hey Chris! How's it going?Chris Brown: It's gooood.

Sindy: Congrats on the release of your first single, Run It. So what's the song about?Chris Brown: It's basically a guy checkin' for a girl, a girl checkin' for a guy.

Sindy: What was the best part about making this album?Chris Brown: I would have to say the whole experience, traveling, working with different producers.

Sindy: And what was the worst?Chris Brown: The worst was that it was hard, but it was fun at the same time.

Sindy: Who's the coolest artist you've worked with so far?Chris Brown: Coolest person? All of 'em are cool all around, but I think the best time I had was with Scott Storch doing Run It and another producer by the name of Brian Cox.

Sindy: What sort of advice did these music producers give you about the music industry?Chris Brown: Just to be focused and stay humble.

Sindy: Any artists you'd like to work with in the future?Chris Brown: In the future, I would like to do a song with Michael Jackson, Lil Wayne, T.I., Keyshia Coles, Ciara, Teairra Mari, Mario, maybe Omarion.

Sindy: What's your fave song on the album?Chris Brown: Favorite song? I would have to say Winner. It's like comparing a relationship to a boxing match.

Sindy: How'd you come up with that comparison?Chris Brown: I co-wrote it and Brian Cox produced it. I was just thinking about the first round being how you met her, the second round how y'all in the relationship and everything y'all doing, and the third round telling her she's a winner.

“Instruction in world history in the so-called high schools is even today in a very sorry condition. Few teachers understand that the study of history can never be to learn historical dates and events by heart and recite them by rote; that what matters is not whether the child knows exactly when this battle or that was fought, when a general was born, or even when a monarch (usually a very insignificant one) came into the crown of his forefathers. No, by the living God, this is very unimportant. To 'learn' history means to seek and find the forces which are the causes leading to those effects which we subsequently perceive as historical events.”
